Summer is here again, and today has been the hottest day yet! We were lucky to be able to have lunch outside for two of Nonna’s lunches in August. Two interesting groups, The Desperados and The Gastric Band! (in the photo).

We hope you’ve all had a wonderful summer. We enjoyed our stay in Puglia. So much wonderful seafood, although the ...

March winds do blow and we shall have snow!

Well, that is true and there is maybe more to come. We have not offered any supper clubs this month as there are too many family birthdays, and of course mother’s day. The two we had in February were a great success. New faces, new groups and they all enjoyed meeting each other as lovers of Italian ...

Happy New Year!

We hope you all had a good Christmas, and New Year. Let’s hope it will be a good one this year!

There are some new dishes on our menus, but we are always happy to create one for your special group or occasion. If you have any requests for dates, please get back to us.

Our first supper is on Saturday 4th February, ...

We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas, not too much turkey! We were lucky to have Santa visit our Supper Club just recently. A merry time was had by all. A big thank you to all who came to our suppers this year. We have enjoyed feeding and entertaining you, and hope to see you in 2023.

With warmest wishes for a healthy and prosperous ...

Here is a photo of me with the famous Nonna Marcella! I have spoken about her in my early Blogs - my inspiration to cooking Italian food! I have been to stay with her and her husband Matteo in Castiglione della Pescaia, on the coast in Tuscany near the town of Grosseto. What a wonderful few days, learning new recipes from Marcella. Of course ...

I cannot believe it is now June! We have had some wonderful suppers and wonderful guests! Thank you all coming. I am off to Italy next week, just a short visit to friends in the Maremma! And to meet up with the amazing Nonna Marcella, who I hope will give me some new ideas for the supper club.

We have the next Supper Club on 9 July which ...

Nonna’s Update

We have just returned from a wonderful holiday in Mauritius, and straight into Supper Club mode …. As you can see from the last one, bringing with us some new ideas for our evenings. Introducing the rum and pear, which is an Italian digestive!

We are full now for May and will be setting dates for later this year, when ...

March news!

A big thank you to all those who joined us for supper in January and February. The open supper club on the 26th was a great success, and interesting for us to meet new people.

We are busy this month with private bookings and our next availability is in May. (Dates to follow)

Oysters are proving very popular, which ...

A good start for the Supper Club in 2022. Thank you all for your continued support!

We had the first one last Saturday, which was a fish night! I think there was too much food! A great group, thank you for being the perfect guests.

Bookings are looking good for February and March, and if you need to look at any of our menus, do get ...

Just to catch up on news from November and December. We have been really busy, and apologise if there have not been any spare places for the Supper Club. In the New Year we will be advertising our dates and menus. We do have bookings already, but for guests bringing their own group. So we need to make sure there is a date when individuals can ...

Thank you all you lovely people who have been to our September supper clubs. October is looking good and last night we had some lovely guests for a special birthday.

Nonna's Kitchen is about to start, so keep watching!

It has been a good start, and we hope you have enjoyed our Italian comfort food! We welcome any ideas or suggestions.

The ...

By special request, we are having a fish night on Saturday 25 September! As usual the menu will include several of our favourite dishes from Italy.

More information to follow, but just putting the date out there for those who are waiting.

A presto!

We are pleased to report a wonderful start to Nonna’s Supper Club. We have had several Friday night suppers, two Saturdays and even a Sunday late lunch, three 70th birthdays, a Christening and some fun nights. There have been a mix of guests, and parties who have never met before (neither had we!) some private groups and a mix of ages, with some ...

Instead of a Friday (and it is Friday the 13th!) the Supper Club will be on Saturday 14 August. Here is our menu. We hope you like it.

We have briefly described the dishes. Just to remind you that in Italy, the pasta dish is not a main course, but a 'primo'! So these will be starter sizes. Of course, if you have a good appetite, there ...

Some interesting facts which will help you understand the Italian menu.

Spaghetti alla bolognese (or spag bol) is a pasta dish invented outside of Italy , and although very popular in various countries, the sauce is never served with spaghetti in Bologna (or elsewhere in Italy), as the pieces of meat do not cling to this shape of pasta. ...
